Die With Zero: Getting All You Can from Your Money and Your Life

Die With Zero is aimed at individuals with a decent income, financial security, and who are already considering long-term savings. It's also beneficial for young people planning their future. It’s not suited for: 🤑 Big Spenders – Those who adopt a YOLO mentality and spend all their money on immediate pleasures. If you fall into this category, Bill suggests: it’s wonderful that you’re enjoying life, but you need to save to avoid a stressful retirement. ❌ People with no disposable income – This book is not intended for individuals who earn just enough to cover living expenses. If you're in this situation, you need to use your money for immediate survival, leaving little to no room for saving. As Bill states: "people in poverty are probably already doing all they can to get the most out of their money and their life. My Top Quotes from the book "Unlike material possessions, which seem exciting at the beginning but then often depreciate quickly, experiences actually gain in value over time: They pay what I call a memory dividend.– Bill Perkins "The business of life is the acquisition of memories. And the end that's all there is. You retire in your own memories.” 💡One of the most impactful ideas I gleaned from Die With Zero is the concept of giving your fortune to your children or to charity while you’re still alive, or when they need it the most. This approach ensures that your generosity has the greatest possible impact and allows you to witness the benefits of your gifts firsthand. Definitely a good read! 👍

Concept is good. However it could have perfectly been a blog post instead of a 200 page book. Very repetitive.

Had this book recommended by a friend, and as someone who is already 'semi-retired' at 51 I figured it's still good to see what else I can learn. I have financial freedom & have been a regular world traveller for most of my life - I saw my grandparents work hard for so long & start to travel when older, which already instilled in me the understanding that it's important to travel as much as possible when younger. This book gave me a couple of awesome extra bits of information for not only myself & husband to continue enjoying our lives, but also for how to help other people 'see the light' in whatever way is feasible for them. It's time for us to give back to others even emotionally to show them what's possible & I can now use parts of this book to assist. Have already recommended it to multiple people! Thanks Bill for such a great read - here's to living life deliberately!

Muy buen libro! Muy revelador. En verdad una lectura para abrir los ojos y el entendimiento sobre que hacer con los recursos que una persona ha acumulado en su vida. Rompe paradigmas y hace pensar en el futuro y en los seres queridos. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

Libro da 5 stelle

Bought this book because Jimmy Carr recommended it but honestly it's a total drag to read. As other's have stated in the reviews this could have been a blog post or a newspaper article. It has some interesting ideas but 90% or more of the book is just repeating very obvious concepts and then the next five chapters keep on repeating it. Also the author's tone and know-it-all attitude don't help the situation. I struggled my way up to chapter 3 and then decided to just stop wasting my valuable time the author says I shouldn't waste.

Ótimo livro, o conceito que ele traz é perfeito, faz todo o sentido e como é de costume, a maioria das pessoas na sua ignorância não vêem dessa forma. Leia o quanto antes que poderá colher os frutos no melhor momento.
